Researchers in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School have opened a new window into understanding the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria.
Phys.org / AI traces prehistoric trade routes of Europe's prized 'green gemstone' trade
A multidisciplinary team of Spanish and Portuguese archaeologists and artificial intelligence experts has combined non-destructive archaeological measurement techniques, machine learning and explainable artificial intelligence ...
Medical Xpress / New on-switch for pain signaling pathway could lead to safer treatment and relief
Researchers at Tulane University, with a team of colleagues from eight other universities, have discovered a new nerve cell signaling mechanism that could transform our understanding of pain and lead to safer, more effective ...
Phys.org / Deep imaging suggests isolated galaxy forms stars without signs of past mergers
Using the Two-meter Twin Telescope (TTT3), Spanish astronomers have conducted deep optical imaging of an isolated dwarf galaxy known as NGC 6789. Results of the new observations, presented November 10 on the arXiv preprint ...
Medical Xpress / Avian flu warning system alerts for cross-species transmission
How can we monitor the cross-species transmission of avian flu? The answer is FluWarning, a digital system that reports abnormal changes in flu viruses, developed by a research team from the Politecnico di Milano and the ...
Phys.org / Explainable AI and turbulence: A fresh look at an unsolved physics problem
While atmospheric turbulence is a familiar culprit of rough flights, the chaotic movement of turbulent flows remains an unsolved problem in physics. To gain insight into the system, a team of researchers used explainable ...
Medical Xpress / New stem cell medium creates contracting canine heart muscle cells
In research, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells are derived from skin, urine, or blood samples and developed into other cells, like heart tissue, that researchers want to study. Because of the similarities between certain ...
Medical Xpress / Electroconvulsive therapy linked to wide range of severe effects, international survey suggests
An international survey has revealed that electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) causes a much broader and more damaging range of side effects than previously acknowledged, challenging long-held claims about its safety.
Medical Xpress / Engineered immune cells target and destroy glioblastoma in animal models
With a five-year survival rate of less than 5%, glioblastoma is one of the most aggressive types of brain cancer. Until now, all available treatments, including immunotherapy—which involves strengthening the immune system ...
Medical Xpress / Review compares interventions for burnout in health care professionals
Mindfulness-based interventions may reduce burnout among nurses and midwives and among a mixture of health care professionals (HCPs), but professional coaching appears to be most effective for reducing burnout among physicians, ...
